Post Your Fall Photos

Not to be a copycat, but I know this spot well. Too bad most of the land along this road is locked up as private property instead of National Forest land. If you know that log cabin right at about this spot, I was there one afternoon when the owner drove up, he was kind of a jerk about kicking me and one other person off the overlook, not marked as private property.

I had to dig around a little for this one, from 2019.

Lots of great photo ops around Ridgway. You seized this one, Patrick.
 
SW. Colorado. Highway 62 west out of Ridgway has a few county roads branching off of it. This was County Road 9. This area is quite the mecca in the fall for landscape photographers.
Yep, I thought that where it was taken. CR 9 is the road to Owl Creek Pass, isn't it?

CR 9 is off 62 west of Ridgway. Owl Creek Pass is east. Very nice drive. Here is what you see on the east side of Owl Creek Pass. I posted something like this a few pages ago too. (Huh? ISO of 800? Not sure what I was thinking there)

CR 9 goes through the Double RL Ranch, owned by Ralph and Rickie Laurens. It's one of the fall high spots.

2022 was the year that I took this photo and a number of other ones that had beautiful displays of golden aspens. I found out on that trip that it was one of the best years for this type of scenery that many of the locals said they had seen. The next two years I knew what they meant because neither of those years could compare to the displays of 2022. And, as I've learned from a number of professional photographers, you just have to be very lucky sometimes. Every year up there is different, I was really lucky in 2022.
